Paha Que Cottonwood 10 x 10 Shade Shelter Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I purchased this sun shelter for my family's vacation on the Outer Banks of NC.It was over a hundred degrees that week and being outside would have been prohibitive without this shelter.It was a huge success.Although it was easy to put up, we decided to leave it up for the entire week -- including overnight.Even the breezes of the Outer Banks couldn't blow this thing down.Special note: I purchased 17 inch, sturdy anchors to keep it secure.The short, dainty anchors included with the shelter would not have worked in the sand.

Product Description:
An ideal alternative to heavy, clumsy steel frame shelters that cost and weight too much, Paha Que's Cottonwood 10 x 10 Shade Shelter is perfect for campsites, backyard barbeques, picnics, soccer games, tailgating, and hanging out at the beach. Very lightweight, the Cottonwood packs down to a compact 8 by 28 inches and comes with an oversized duffel-style carry bag. With a generous peak height and more than six feet of headroom in the corners, this user-friendly shelter can be set up in around five minutes on most ground conditions.

Supported with a heavy-duty 6000 series alloy aluminum shock-corded pole set, shock-cording keeps the pole segments together for ease of assembly. Continuous pole sleeves make inserting the poles a breeze while also eliminating the need for roof pole clips or snaps that tend to break, rendering your tent useless.

Paha Que's shelters also offer heavy high-quality fabric and superior UV protection while also providing up to 50 SPF.

About Paha Que
Paha Que Wilderness Inc. is a young and innovative company that makes high-quality family camping tents. Campers love them, but when they first see the name in print, they pause and wonder just how to pronounce it and try to understand its meaning. You won't find it in any dictionary and there have been debates amongst linguists about its derivation. According to the legend behind the term, Paha Que is the Southwest Indian version of "Aloha." Paha Que takes it to mean "happy trails." It can mean hello, good-bye, how are you, have a good day, and more. Perhaps a variation on the Spanish phrase Que Pasa? The people at Paha Que learned it from a local rancher friend whose grandpa learned it from local Indians. It boils down to the fact that the name is surely different, and appropriately so because these tents are very different from ordinary tents.

All Weather Blanket Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)OK, I have reviewed the HeatSheet blanket and Bivvie before, it's a great product for survival where space and weight are significant considerations- the two person size or the bivvie weigh about 3oz, and are about the size of a bar of soap.

At the far end of the scale would be a good high quality military surplus wool blanket- 6+ pounds. Good for a roomy trunk, your SUV, cabin or in the home.

Here, in the middle is the "Space' or "All Weather" blanket. A super tough laminate of fiber scrim and aluminized plastic, it weighs 12oz, and is about the size of a trade paperback book. There are several advantages of the "space blanket" (note the name is also used for the super-thin one-use mylar blankets, don't get them confused):
1.Re-usable over and over, these will take a beating.
2.More uses- they can be used as a tarp, picnic blanket, or on the floor of your tent to protect the tent bottom and reflect heat back. This is my primary use, I find that one of these- PLUS a pad- works about twice as well as a pad only.
3.They have grommets so are easier to use.
4. In the desert, they make a good sun protection tarp.

So, if one can afford the weight and room, I'd suggest one of these for survival purposes on a hiking trip (one of these plus a HeatSheet bivvie would be even better).Yes, another 12 oz is a little much, but with one of these for two hikers, it's not so bad.

On the other end of the scale, if you don't want a big heavy wool blanket cluttering up your trunk- or want another layer in "cold country" then this is also a good choice. It's also good for the office.

Get the orange/silver version, as it works for signaling too.

Emergency Thermal Blankets (4 Pack) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I've played with a couple of different brands of space blankets and these blankets are of fine quality.They suffer the usual short comings of this material (tears spread easily) but on the grand scale of space blanket brands, you are getting one of the better quality blankets.For example, one of the cheaper brands I have tried experienced flaking of the mylar coating after (admittedly) rough handling.The brand being reviewed here did not suffer from this flaking.Definitely recommended.

Emergency Fire Starter Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I received this today, and it works great. I would suggest using the back (non-serrated) edge of the steel to shave the magnesium and the serrated edge for striking the flint. The magnesium block and flint both have some kind of coating, so the first time you use it it'll take a few extra tries. I've seen these selling for double or triple the price and people were happy to pay it, so this is an excellent deal!

SwissGear Hiking Tent Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I like the fact that this tent comes with a 10 yr warranty and that it uses aluminum poles. This is a great 1 person tent and an adequate 2 person tent. It is quality made and very durable and you cant beat the price! Also be sure you look for the "other" tent exactly listed like this one on amazon because they offer a cheaper price and shipping! Also always seam seal every tent you may buy, will save you a headache later!
